Chapter 2: The Mission of Rebirth is to Make Money

The thing that fell down should have been a steel plate used for construction.

Jiang Qin considered it for a moment and came up with a plausible answer.

So he first encountered a key question – why was he reborn?

The answer was actually very simple. Probably because he felt regret in his heart, thus moving heaven and earth and obtaining an opportunity.

Then for Jiang Qin, what was the regret?

Nothing else, just not being able to make money.

So he was reborn to make money. Love? Not even a dog would bother!

Especially being someone’s backup. It’s the most exhausting thing. With that time, he’d rather help his parents wash dishes and chopsticks.

When people are young, they always overthink. It’s understandable to be full of admiration for beautiful things. But for a man approaching forty, if his mind is still full of breasts and legs after being reborn, that’s too ridiculous.

Since you’re reborn, who the hell would bother with love?!

Jiang Qin folded up the paper he had finished writing and put it in his pocket. But when he looked up, he found Chu Siqi standing there dazed, a trace of disbelief flashing through her eyes.

“That was the love letter you wrote to me. How…how could you take it back?”

“Didn’t you say you didn’t want it? Then don’t let it go to waste. I’ll change the name and give it to someone else.”

Chu Siqi choked for a moment, then quickly changed her words, “Jiang Qin, actually you’re not completely out of chances. I just don’t want to date right now. But it might be different once we’re in college. At that time, you’ll be the first one I consider!”

Jiang Qin couldn’t help glancing at her. Goosebumps instantly rose all over his body.

If it was his youthful self here, there really might have been a possibility of continuing down a hopeless path because of this faint hope.

But from his current perspective, his taste when he was young really wasn’t that great.

The first one you’ll consider? Is this human speech?

“I’m telling the truth. But there’s one condition. You can’t write love letters to anyone else or like anyone else. Otherwise, we’ll never have a chance again!”

“I feel I don’t really like you that much. Let’s part on good terms, be good.”

Chu Siqi’s eyes widened slightly. Her proud heart suffered a great blow.

How could it be parting on good terms? It sounds like I’m the one being dumped. I’m so kind, encouraging you not to give up, what’s with your attitude?

“Jiang Qin, do you know love needs to be nurtured? If you can’t even endure a little setback, how can I consider being with you? I haven’t even seen your determination, okay?”

“Then go nurture it with someone else. I have more important things to do now.” Right now, Jiang Qin’s mind was filled with making money. He really didn’t want to make any more useless entanglements.

Hearing this, Chu Siqi immediately exploded. “Jiang Qin, you scoundrel! I swear I will never acknowledge you again!”

“Wait a second!”

Just as Chu Siqi was about to run off, Jiang Qin suddenly called out to her, his face revealing unusual nervousness.

Seeing his expression, Chu Siqi cheered up a little. The pride of a young girl instantly returned to her face.

He was still afraid of her ignoring him after all. All that talk about parting on good terms was just putting on a front.

“What is it? Is there something else? But I have to tell you in advance, you won’t have another chance!”

Jiang Qin seemed not to hear as he raised the pencil case in his hand and glanced at it. “Are we taking the college entrance exam? Is it over? Which subject are we on?”

Chu Siqi was slightly stunned. “It’s over. We just finished the last subject this morning!”

“That’s great. If I had to take it again, I wouldn’t even be able to get into Lanxiang Technical School.”

Chu Siqi looked at his bright smile and suddenly felt a bit dazed. “You…you stopped me just to tell me this?”

Jiang Qin took a deep breath. “There’s one more thing. Since the exam is over, does that mean we’re on vacation?”

“I don’t know. Ask whoever you want!”

Chu Siqi was furious. She ran back to the teaching building.

Being rejected and then acting like you don’t care, what kind of person is he? Does he think I’ll soften my heart if he does this? Who knows where he learned it from, he even knows how to play hard to get now. Then I won’t acknowledge you for a week. Let’s see who gets anxious and apologizes first!

Jiang Qin packed up his things and headed towards the teaching building. But before he could take a few steps, he was surrounded by a group of classmates watching the commotion.

“I said you would definitely fail. Do you think you can like Chu Siqi just because you want to? Know your place!”

The speaker was Qin Zi’ang, a well-known rich second generation in class 2, grade 3. His dad was the biggest real estate developer in the area.

This guy had once performed the feat of loudly declaring he would pay for everyone in the school cafeteria, simply insufferably arrogant.

“Jiang, no need to be sad. There’s at least eighty people who’ve been rejected by Chu Siqi, if not a hundred. I’ll treat you to soda in a bit.”

The second speaker was a little fat guy with glasses, considered Jiang Qin’s best bro in high school, named Guo Zihang.

Jiang Qin ignored Qin Zi’ang’s mocking remarks and looked at Guo Zihang with some emotion, patting his shoulder with one hand.

“Guo, your legs are still here. It’s really not easy to see you standing up.”

“???????????”

Packing up and leaving the school, Jiang Qin rode his bike all the way south.

To be honest, a young body really was great. No fatigue, no aches and pains. Only the user would know.

If it was before his rebirth, forget pedaling a bicycle, he might not even be able to walk a few steps without panting.

Now it was different. With this physique, if he went to work in a factory turning screws, he could probably make enough for a house.

He looked at the slogans promoting the Olympics along the road and pedaled faster and faster, freely enjoying this infinitely youthful body.

Wow, he even had hair that could fly in the wind. This feeling was long lost!

Half an hour later, he arrived at the Lihui Community located in the north part of the city.

The buildings here had already turned black. The paint on the walls was peeling off like it had tinea. The entire neighborhood didn’t even have a proper main gate, just a bar restricting vehicle entry. Looking in from the entrance, the first thing you saw wasn’t the unit doors, but illegally built storage sheds.

If he remembered correctly, this should be one of the first neighborhoods in the old city district to be demolished. The official demolition notice would be issued this July. To prove the determination of the demolition and renovation project, the government had already allocated all the compensation funds by October.

His third uncle’s family lived here. As soon as they got the money, their whole demeanor changed. They were smoking Chunghwa cigarettes and even clamoring to buy a Mercedes-Benz.

Only later they didn’t get the Benz. His uncle’s two sons started fighting first. The second son wanted half to marry a new bride. The eldest son also wanted half to marry someone else’s wife.

At the time, the two of them bashed each other’s heads in. The second son said, “Bro, you’re marrying a used one and still want half, where’s the sense in that?”

The eldest heard this and got furious. “I’m marrying an older one and getting a younger one for free, how is that not better than you?!”

Want to buy.

Jiang Qin looked at this old neighborhood and couldn’t help salivating.

But there was a very serious problem now. He had no money at all.

How much money could a student who just finished the college entrance exam have? He had some coins for buying popsicles, but buying a house was out of the question.

Jiang Qin felt a bit regretful, always feeling like countless little wads of cash were rolling by right in front of him and then disappearing without a trace.

He indeed didn’t have the ability to gather a sum of seed money in a short time, so there was little he could do.

Buying a house or land was unrealistic. Investing in stocks also required capital.

This was the disadvantage of not having a system. No matter how many good ideas you had in your head, it was very difficult to take the first step without money.

Did I have a fake rebirth?

Just then, Jiang Qin suddenly saw a bus stop at the side of the road ahead. Chu Siqi got off the bus, her floral dress swaying in the wind.

As soon as she got off, she saw Jiang Qin. Her expression was first surprise, then she snorted and raised her head, seeming to be waiting for something.

But to her surprise, Jiang Qin only nodded very politely, then reluctantly glanced at the community across the street again before riding away on his bike.

The breeze lifted a corner of her skirt. Only endless shock and helplessness remained under the bus stop sign.
